Pakistan Bans Bollywood Movies Amid Cross-Border Tensions

The tensions between India and Pakistan lately are not just limited to cross-border terrorism and disputes over the divided territory of Kashmir, but entertainment industry too has been jolted.

Pakistan cinemas have banned Indian films in the country calling an act of solidarity with the armed forces.

The Indian movie boycotts were announced in Islamabad, Karachin and Lahore. The move was a followup of Indian Motion Picture Producers Association’s decision on Thursday to ban Pakistani actors from working in Bollywood.
